SCHEDULE D, PAGE 1, PART II, LINE 9 THE ORGANIZATION RECEIVES DONATIONS OF CONSERVATION EASEMENTS FROM LANDOWNERS. OCCASIONALLY THE EASEMENTS RECEIVED MAY BE PARTIALLY OR ENTIRELY PAID FOR BY THE LANDTRUST. CONSERVATION EASEMENTS TYPICALLY ASSIGN THE DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS OF LAND TO THE LANDTRUST, THEREBY PROTECTING IT FROM DEVELOPMENT BY CURRENT OR FUTURE LANDOWNERS. ALTHOUGH THE REMOVAL OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS OF LAND HAS A MEASURABLE DEVALUATION TO THE LANDOWNER, THEY HAVE NO ATTAINABLE VALUE TO THE LANDTRUST. THERE IS NO MARKET OR MARKET VALUE FOR THE EASEMENTS IN THE HANDS OF THE LANDTRUST AND THE EASEMENTS IN FACT IMPOSE A FINANCIAL BURDEN ON THE ORGANIZATION. EASEMENT DONORS, WHILE HELPING THE LANDTRUST SATISFY CONSERVATION OBJECTIVES, ACTUALLY IMPOSE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITES ON THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH THEIR ONGOING MONITORING REQUIREMENTS. THEREFORE, EASEMENTS ACQUIRED BY THE LANDTRUST (WHETHER PURCHASED OR DONATED) ARE ACCOUNTED AS "ZERO VALUE" ASSETS AND ARE, THEREFORE, NOT REFLECTED IN THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
